Get a fresh start
with a medical facial peel
Are you looking to even out your complexion? To bring radiance and luminosity to your face? To get rid of skin imperfections such as brown spots or sun spots (solar keratosis)? To smooth out fine lines? To tighten your pores? To erase acne scars? To prevent or treat the signs of ageing?
If you want to rejuvenate your skin, medical peeling is the solution.
A peel involves applying a cocktail of acidic chemicals in varying concentrations to the skin in order to cause a genuine exfoliation of the epidermis.
It is associated with stimulation of collagen fibre production.
This technique will restore your skin’s radiance by reducing imperfections.
Peeling promotes the regeneration of your epidermis by stimulating cell renewal.
This treatment is personalised to achieve your goals, while taking into account your skin type and tolerance.
Two facial peeling protocols:
Jet Peel or classic peeling?
The peel incorporated into the JET PEEL protocol uses either glycolic acid (a fruit acid that remains the gold standard) in different concentrations tailored to the skin type, or mandelic acid, chosen for its excellent tolerance.
The peel is then followed by a deep revitalising treatment tailored to the individual’s needs, using various products such as hyaluronic acid, vitamins and minerals.
The second protocol used at Maison Magnifisens is a deeper, personalised peel based on gluconolactone. This molecule is well tolerated and suitable for sensitive skin.
Optimised by a keratolytic action, it is as effective as fruit acids. A comprehensive active ingredient with multiple properties, this treatment has an antioxidant effect, a moisturising action and a collagen-regenerating action. It is non-photosensitising. It will be combined with other specific targeted acids, chosen according to your skin type, such as:
– Glycolic acid to boost skin renewal, treating wrinkles and improving skin firmness. This is Time Peel.
– Phytic acid with citric and glycolic acid to whiten the skin’s surface, treating blemishes and brightening your skin with powerful cell renewal action. This is the Brigt peel, which offers the most comprehensive results.
– Mandelic acid to treat wrinkles and brighten your skin (this peel is very well tolerated). This is the Light peel.
How does a facial peel treatment work?
The peel is carried out in three stages. Dr Sandra Texier explains them to you.
Step 1: Preparation phase for facial peeling
The patient is comfortably positioned in a lying down position. Sensitive areas such as the eyes and mucous membranes are protected. Then, a pre-peel lotion is applied evenly to the area to be treated using cotton wool or a compress to allow the skin’s pH to gradually decrease. This prepares the skin and evens out the skin’s pH.
Step 2: Applying the facial peel
Apply the Peeling solution with a brush to the entire area to be treated. Then leave it on for three minutes during the first session. This time can be gradually increased depending on the person’s tolerance.
Please note: The type of peel used is determined in advance during a consultation in order to tailor the treatment to your objectives and skin type.
Step 3: Post-peel facial treatment
After the peel, a neutralising and soothing treatment is applied. Active ingredients based on sodium bicarbonate are used to neutralise the action of the acids used and soothe the skin. This post-peel product is applied using a cotton pad or compress. The process is repeated if necessary. We will also rinse with water if necessary. Then, we will dry the skin. The treatment is finally completed with the application of a cream, massaged in for effective hydration.
Please note: the peel takes half an hour. There is no downtime, so you can resume normal activities immediately after the treatment. The peel can therefore be carried out during your lunch break, for example, and will not prevent you from returning to work afterwards.
